C274 Premonition
C274 Premonition
"Boss Ping, what instructions do you have?" I looked at Boss Ping and said. I had a premonition that Boss Ping might say something to me.
"Bro, from the kindness of your heart, how does my bro treat your bro?" Boss Ping took a drag on his cigarette and looked at me.
"No problem, Boss Ping is definitely the type to be a big bro." I answered quickly.
"Tell me, what do I do to your Issuing Company?" Boss Ping continued.
"I didn't say anything, I'm sure you're very interesting!" I went on.
"Count me in as your brother has a good conscience. Honestly speaking." Boss Ping gloomily smoked, and continued: "Towards Issuing Company, towards you, and towards Boss Qiu, I consider myself to be very sincere, honest, and considerate. I believe that I am worthy of all of you."
At this moment, I could guess Boss Ping's intention for talking to me. He pretended not to know and smiled at Boss Ping: "Big Bro, there's something behind your words."
Boss Ping said quickly: "Let's be frank, brother. Recently, your Issuing Company has started to operate in a pluralistic way, and I have also seen the report of the investigation that came from you. To tell the truth, I admire your brother's thinking, there is a strategic high, long term vision, among them based on their own advantage of network resources to expand logistics and the external publication of this section, I very much agree.
However, I have different ideas about your development of DM and advertising paging business, especially you want to do DM business. Dude, I'm an advertising man, and I think you can understand my responsibility. You're developing ad clips now, and they're already having an impact on the advertising business of the newspapers. The already and potential advertisers will split up and use ad clips to reduce the number of ads placed in the newspapers.
"The most important thing is the DM section, which is just an advertising brochure. Once the climate changes, it will greatly affect the advertising of the newspapers, affecting the development of the group advertising. From a small point of view, it would affect the business of the group advertising company and lead away the customers."
"This …" I paused for a moment and said, "Boss Qiu was just about to communicate with you about this. I think he will find you very soon."
"I think it's better if I communicate with you first, you're the one who started this. I think it's better if I don't drink Boss Qiu and communicate directly for the time being. Give me some leeway, I have a cushion, I want to pass my meaning to Boss Qiu through you." Boss Ping said straightforwardly: "Bro, I mean, since you've already started your ad clips, I won't say anything. But, DM business, you can never start, please take my words to Boss Qiu."
"This …" I said: "Boss Ping, I can pass your meaning to Boss Qiu, but I have communicated with Boss Qiu before, we have the same idea, that is, to do DM, which is the general trend, the focus of our diverse operations in Issuing Company, which is the general direction."
After Boss Ping heard what I said, his face became gloomy: "If you insist on doing this, then you will not care about the overall benefits and will not talk about the big picture. You are trying to poach me. Although the advertising agency is out, but, if your DM develops, the agent will give me a lot of pressure. If the agent can't complete this year's task, then tomorrow's agent will be greatly affected, and this will ultimately harm the interest of the group. "
I felt incomprehensible towards Boss Ping's idea, and said: "Boss Ping, DM, Hsinghai now also has to do ah, the postal express company has been doing ah, I feel that this is not an impact, it is a fair competition. DM is a form that is in the ascendant right now, and even if we don't do it, the other advertising companies in society will definitely do it. Also, the impact that DM has on the newspaper advertising isn't just limited to just our group, there are also many newspapers in Hsinghai. "
Boss Ping said: "That's different, the postal service is doing, I know, but they don't do it in the climate, they have the network but no awareness of advertising business, they have never been able to do it, the social advertising companies do it, they don't have their own posting networks, and they pay a lot of money to do it, and our Issuing Company do it, you and Boss Qiu operate it, I know that with my understanding of you guys, you guys can do it.
If we blow it up, of course it will affect other newspapers as well. However, our advertising company is the biggest one in Hsinghai Newspaper Advertising, and we are the ones who bear the brunt of it. I don't think that's what you mean by fair competition. I think it's a kind of internal strife, digging the inner corners. "
"I don't think so," I said. "I think it's a kind of free competition. The advertising market is so big that you don't have to take advantage of existing customers. I think with DM, the agency will have more pressure and motivation. This should be a good thing. "
Boss Ping's face turned even uglier: "Is this your own idea or Boss Qiu's idea?"
"That's what Boss Qiu and I mean." I said, "Of course, you can communicate with Boss Qiu again."
As I was talking, Qiu Tong came in. She must have sensed that Boss Ping and I were going to talk about this, so she left the venue.
"Heh heh, why are you two not having a proper meeting and talking about things in private here? I didn't disturb you guys when I came here, did I? " Qiu Tong said with a smile.
Boss Ping looked at Qiu Tong with a gloomy face: "Boss Qiu, I was talking about your DM with Yi Ke. Originally, I didn't want to talk about it directly with you, I wanted to tell you my meaning through Yi Ke. Since you came, let's talk about it directly."
"Oh …" This matter, hur hur, I was just about to have an exchange with your brother. Alright then, it's not bad for us to talk about it first. " Qiu Tong said with a smile.
I stood up. "Leaders, please speak. I'll be going out for a meeting first!" I knew I should avoid it.
I sat in the conference room, feeling uneasy.
After about half an hour, he finally saw Boss Ping and Qiu Tong enter the meeting room. On the other hand, Qiu Tong's expression was very calm, but her brows were furrowed as if she was thinking about something.
As soon as I saw it, I knew that the conversation had collapsed.
At this time, I noticed Cao Teng was coldly observing Qiu Tong and Boss Ping's expressions. He was very focused and would occasionally blink his eyes. When he saw me looking at him, he quickly retracted his gaze and looked down at the materials.
The next day, I went to Qiu Tong's office and found her sitting there thinking about something.
Thus, I told Qiu Tong about my conversation with Boss Ping yesterday and asked her about the results of her conversation with Boss Ping.
Qiu Tong listened to what I had to say and nodded her head. "The ideas that he and I have are basically the same as yours, and I have stressed that this is competition, not an internal poaching. If we don't do it now, there will be others to do it with as well, but the fact that the Post and Express Company isn't doing it yet, doesn't mean that it won't be easy to do it in the future. One day, the DM business will grow to a great extent, and if we don't do it now, others will do it too.
In a market economy situation, doing one thing is very important. However, Boss Ping stubbornly insists that no matter what happens in the future, at least for now, we will bear the brunt of his advertising business, squeeze his agents, and bring about a great deal of passivity in his work. He firmly opposes us. We talked for a long time, didn't give in to each other, couldn't convince each other, and finally collapsed. "
At this moment, I suddenly thought that Boss Ping's focus is now on the present. As for the future, maybe he won't be the CEO of an advertising company anymore, whatever the future, as long as he can suppress this, it will reduce his pressure. At least next year's advertising agency won't be affected.
Also, he doesn't seem to care about anyone else and is very wary of Qiu Tong and me. He seems to be certain that as long as Qiu Tong and I do this, we will definitely do something big, causing a huge impact in the advertising world of Hsinghai. At the same time that we attack other newspaper advertisements, we will also attack his advertising company's business.
Actually, I really have this idea in my heart, I am prepared to make this DM big, and not ordinary big.
At this moment, I suddenly realized that beneath Boss Ping's seemingly powerful appearance was a fragile heart. He was actually afraid of competition!
He didn't seem to be afraid of the competition among his peers, but he was afraid that I would compete with Qiu Tong and him.
I looked at Qiu Tong and said, "The essence of market economy is to compete freely. There is competition outside and competition is also needed inside. Only competition can stimulate the dynamic and dynamic outside and inside of the enterprise.
Since we have decided that the right thing to do, since it conforms to the spirit of Group Party Committee, since it is something that is beneficial to companies and groups, we shall unswervingly continue, and continue. I think Boss Ping will understand sooner or later. I admit that Boss Ping is a good person, but, work is work, personal feelings are personal feelings. "
My attitude was firm.
After listening to what I had to say, Qiu Tong looked up at me with a thoughtful expression. After being silent for a while, she said, "Let me find some time to communicate with Boss Ping and listen to his thoughts."
I'm not talking.
In the afternoon, Qiu Tong informed Cao Teng and I to follow him to a meeting at the Group Party Committee Small Meeting. She said that Group Party Committee Leader wanted to hear about the DM business from us, and that the leaders of the Party Committee were the Chairman and Boss Sun.
I was surprised, I knew Boss Ping must have reported this to the chairman.
I know, Boss Ping is the chairman of the chairman, the chairman of the promotion, a lot of time, some things, Boss Ping directly to the chairman of the chairman, sometimes even Sun Dongkai went over.
I think that even though Sun Dongkai looks indifferent on the surface, but he must be very resentful in his heart. However, he can't do anything to Boss Ping because Boss Ping is the chairman's big shot, and the advertising company is the treasure pot for creating wealth for the corporation.
Of course, as for what personal relationship Boss Ping has with the chairman, I don't know.
I suddenly felt a heaviness in my heart. Unknowingly, Boss Ping and I walked to the opposite side of the arena. This was something that I was extremely unwilling to do. I had always regarded him as a good brother.
Seeing Qiu Tong's expression, she seemed to be serious. I don't think she expected Boss Ping to directly bring this matter to the chairman. She didn't even have the chance to communicate with Boss Ping and directly went to the highest level.
